When Autumn Comes
Embracing Memories: When Seasons Shift
Lyrics
10 years a hundred miles away
Reflects a significant duration of separation and distance.
Smoke rings ‘bove the bed all day
Symbolizes a continuous, lingering presence or memory despite absence.
Do you think we could last forever
Expresses a desire for enduring love or commitment.
Can we get lost in the moment, lost in the moment
Asks if it's possible to become engrossed or consumed in the present moment.
I know I know
Repetition emphasizes certainty or agreement with a previous statement.
When you were gone you left for good reasons
Recognizes the departure as purposeful or justified.
Is it crazy I can’t remember a thing about em?
Questions the ability to recall memories associated with the departure.
Winter summer spring I don’t need no one to lean on
Emphasizes independence during various seasons, suggesting self-reliance.
But when autumn comes
Highlights a specific moment of change or transition.
Won’t you just let your hair down
Encourages relaxation or letting go during a specific season.
Skate with me on a frozen lake
Invites shared enjoyment or experience in a serene, picturesque setting.
Let the palm trees sway and
Implies the juxtaposition of two different environments or states.
Just forget your cares now
Encourages abandoning worries or troubles.
Float with me on a memory
Suggests the possibility of reconnecting through shared memories.
Maybe then you’ll come back to me
Expresses hope for a reunion or return of a person.
Images blur and they start to fade
Portrays the fading of vivid images or memories over time.
Have a hard time thinkin of your face
Struggles to recall specific facial details or memories of physical closeness.
When our bodies used to tesselate
Recalls the intimate connection shared previously.
Are there times when you still think of me, at all
Questions if there are moments when the other person still remembers.
I know I know
Reiteration of certainty or agreement regarding a previous sentiment.
Lookin back on the night when I left you waiting
Reflects on leaving someone waiting in the past.
And I remember what you said when you just kept calling
Recalls a repeated attempt to communicate or reach out.
“Spring and summer winter I know the seasons change”
Recognizes the inevitability of change through the seasons.
But when autumn comes
Symbolizes a specific time or moment when expectations may shift.
